Make and Model of the car you took your driver's test in

[frannyr]

What was the Make and Model of the car you took your driver's test in?  Mine was a 1981 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme.  Drove it until it died!

[flex]

1957 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria. It was yellow and white and it belonged to my mom.

Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon

I never took the driving test (still do not have a Driver's License).

My first driving experience was in a 1978 Ford Crown Vic LTD former cop car that had already been through four girls learning to drive, and had hit 3 deer and survived basically unscathed (the deer did not). It was a tank.

I have no idea. I know it was a stick shift and was old and a pain in the ass to drive. I failed the first time because of that stupid car (anyone who drove it experienced the 'shuddering' that occurred but the guy thought it was my stick shift skills - my parents got it fixed after that). My parents still apologise for not renting or finding an automatic for me to test in (my brother did so 3 years later).

The car belonged to the driver school. It was small and red. It was also in 1992...

[auntie]

 1972 Chevy Impala like this bad boy.

[TBM]

I have no idea.

I do know that it wasn't my car though....that was a 1960-something Mercury Comet that used to belong to my grandmother.

[kittycatlove]

I can't remember. It was either the car my mom handed down to me which was a 1979 Ford Thunderbird, or maybe she let me take her new car which was a 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Either way, both boats, LOL.

1986 Mercury Cougar.

My dad bought it before I turned 16, but I had to learn to drive stick (standard transmission) prior to being allowed to drive the car.

I remember it was rear wheel drive, because there was an ice storm the morning I was to take my driver's test and my dad took me to take the test anyway. He said "if you can't drive on ice, you shouldn't have a license." Thankfully, I passed.

1978 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. It had a V8.

[Gato]

It was my mom's mid-80's Renault Alliance.  No power steering, so I really had to work to parallel park that sucker.

[ksun]

1986 VW Golf. It was a 5 speed. I would have taken it in the car my parents had for me ('81 VW Rabbit 4 speed) but someone stole the front license plate and I didn't want to get a ticket and fail my test.

[sweetcheeks]

1973 or 74 Dodge Duster. I had never driven it until the day of my road test, and crammed in an hour of test-driving it the day of. The rear window was at a weird 45 degree angle, which gave a very limited view when backing up. I wound up failing parallel parking due to that. Thankfully, at the time, you were allowed to fail ONE thing and still get your license.

1969 Ford Galaxy 500.

[dragon's breath]

No idea, it was my dad's car. When I got my license (in '97), I was only allowed to drive my mom's 1971 Chevy Beauville van (orangish tan and white), until I got my own.

This one except ours was the uglier color:

[mich1]

1968 Ford Galaxy 500.

[BlondeSpiders]

'79 Rabbit. This was taken in '88 or '89, I was 16. Check out that hair! Also, please note my oh-so-fashionable acid washed denim skirt and TWO t-shirts with rolled sleeves and knotted at my waist. And to think I used cry about being so fat at 140#.

This was me, too!  Except my mom's was dark blue with the super stylish wood paneling look along the bottom.

1986 Chevy Cavalier - my dad's car. And I got turned away at the DMV because a brake light was out. Had to go back another weekend after it was fixed. Thanks, Dad!

[notsopicky]

1986 Chevy Lumina. Same car I cracked up in 1991 driving back to college.

[caddywompus]

The first time I took it, I used my dads 1975 Cadillac. I flunked because I didn't get the parallel parking right. After the test, dad and i drove back around to where the parallel parking part was- and he lined up the car next to the cones, and found out the car was longer than the space they had marked off!
I went back and took the test in a smaller Mercury Comet, and passed with flying colors.

85 Buick Electra station wagon

'84(I think) Pontiac Phoenix

Yup. No clue.  I just know it was a junker.

That made me laugh!

For the record I have only had 5 cars in my entire life and have been driving for over 30 years. Also have a knack for remembering insignificant trivia.  Don't ask me what I did yesterday, I won't recall.

I have the same knack.

I got my license driving an '85 Toyota Camry.

[stever]

1984 Honda Accord. It was my mom's.

[zitiqueen]

I have no idea, it belonged to the dealer who donated cars for drivers training. My first car, however, was a blue 1981 AMC Concord Wagon, with the wood grain! I had a lot of good times with that car!
